Perfect location. Upscale hotel with all the amenities. Free parking. It is on the main road in Bar Harbor. You can do dining and shopping just outside the hotel. Very close to Acadia National Park. Very close to the harbor with so many activities - cruises, whale watching etc. Breakfast is great. Staff was very friendly and was always available. Will go back to the same hotel next time we visit Bar Harbor.
